From my heart to yours, thank you.

I felt that my first post of the say should be hearty THANK YOU for all of you who donated money to my Pay Pal account yesterday.

As you know it was not my idea that Tuesday be a day to make donations to this blog, nor could I imagine ever asking.  But that does not mean it was not greatly appreciated.

Your generosity, and kind messages attached to the payments, were VERY kind, and it made me feel more than a little humble.

I would like you to know that I will not be spending the extra cash on loose women and fast cars. I will instead be spending the money on loose cars and fast women.

Obviously I am joking, mostly because my daughter can smell money for a thousand miles away and will undoubtedly come up with some emergency that can only be solved by emptying my bank account.

I know what you are thinking, "Can't you say no?'

Nope I cannot.

It turns out I love that little pain in the ass, who shoots me her mother's look when I am correcting her, and can NEVER SEEM TO GET HER DIRTY DISHES INTO THE DISHWASHER, too much to ever deny her anything.

Perhaps you would like to know that your generosity, and the money earned from Google ads, in the past have helped to:

• Purchase her a new transmission when her old one fell out of her motor-home on the way up here from Georgia.
• Purchase a ratty old couch that she could plop in the middle of my living room.
• Buy a truck for $500 that I thought would only last the summer, but which she is still driving a year later.
• Buy her a new Apple computer when her old one went belly up.
• Pay for her wisdom teeth to be pulled when she was in too much pain to even get out of bed.
• Purchase a Queen size bed because "I'm a grown woman Dad, I can't sleep in a twin bed anymore!"
• Buy her a new I-Pad for "her work."
• And pay for her gas when she was in between movie and TV gigs.

And believe me, even though I might complain all the time occasionally, I could not have thought of a better way to have spent any of that money. (Though I might have at least enjoyed SHOPPING for fast women.)

Anyhow I greatly appreciate that your generosity has allowed me to be the hero in my daughter's life when she desperately needed one. I don't think I could have managed it on just my salary.

Merry Christmas Angel!

So thank you again, and I hope I continue to provide entertainment, humor, and important factual information for many years to some.

Namaste my friends.
